Synopsis

In this cahier, celebrated Spanish novelist and translator Javier Mar­as writes of the origins of his impulse to write, of the origins of his own family and of the connection between these two different sorts of beginning. Exploring the difference between what is real in the world and what is true in fiction, he explains why an appeal to real events has never convinced him; why the history of his own family, with its Cuban and Spanish strands, has left him uncertain what is legend and what is historically factual; and why what has been imagined or dreamed can end up being truer than what really happened. The cahier is complemented by an essay on translating Mar­as by his chief translator into English, Margaret Jull Costa, and by images taken from the works of the influential Cuban artist Wifredo Lam.
